Alarm systems deter crime, protecting property and giving home and business owners a sense of security. If you are considering having an alarm system installed in your home or business, there are a few questions you should consider asking.

How long will it take for your alarm system to notify the security company?
Alarms are set with delayed notifications to give you time to enter your code into the alarm panel. You will want to know how long you have to enter your code after entering your home and how soon the alarm company will be notified if someone breaks in to your home or business.

Do you need to test your alarm system regularly?
Your alarm company can tell you how often to test your alarm system to be sure your alarm equipment is in good working order. Testing you alarm is an important part of alarm system maintenance.

How will your pets affect your burglar alarm?
Many alarm systems can be set to distinguish small pets from intruders. If you have large pets, it is a good idea to ask an alarm company about home monitoring systems that will not be triggered by the movement of your pet. For example, surveillance cameras would make it possible for a security company to tell the difference between the movements of your pet and those of a burglar.

What security system options are available?
Security alarm companies offer a variety of packages for homes and businesses. There are different types of sensors that can be used, like infrared motion detectors and glass break detectors. Also, some homeowners choose to have CCTV cameras installed in addition to other forms of monitoring technology. In addition to monitoring for intruders, security systems can also be set to alert homeowners in the event of a fire or high levels of carbon monoxide.
